Culture in Action: The Ideagen Way to Inspire, Include & Innovate

Esther Bennett, Global People Leader at Ideagen and Chartered Member of the Institute of Internal Communications, brings a real-world blueprint for living culture at PeopleFirst Summit ’25. In “Culture in Action,” Esther shows how Ideagen has transformed from a fragmented acquisition-grown company into a united global family of nearly 2,000 colleagues. She shares their “culture in action” playbook: inspiring through authentic leadership like the CEO’s global Grand Tour; including through co-created values and employee resource groups influencing board-level decisions; and innovating through passion projects such as apprentices building life-saving apps. Esther demonstrates that culture is not words on a wall but daily actions that create ambition, adventure, and community. For leaders and HR professionals striving to embed culture meaningfully, this session offers practical inspiration. Watch on-demand to see how culture in action drives real impact.
